    With that said, landing 3 punches to 2.....3 punches wins.

    Horrible fight.

    I disagree. That round should be scored a draw.

    Well, that's up for discussion. Depends what you like. In that scenario, you could score it for Pac because you like "effective aggression".

    But 3 is more than 2.

    I thought it was a good fight!

    Pad did better than I thought, I expected a more one sided or at least a strong beating. We just got a schooling

    In any case it was more like 5 or 6 to 1 or 2, round after round

    FB is jealous because they all wanted to have Pac's butt baby

    but Pac elected to have Floyd's butt baby instead

    What Manny had also lost was a "nothing to lose & everthing to prove" mentality that he had with DLH/ Hatton. I hate to say it, but he like so many other fighters rthese days, seemed to be a fighter happy to have a close fight & complain about the decision

    The dude is a 36 year old pressure fighter who's style is reliant on footspeed.....mainly, he just got old
     
  10. Exactly. It was clear that Floyd was outlanding Pacquiao round after round.

    True Hut, but it's not just that. What I've also been saying for a while, is Manny is too nice and chilled out these days, less violent. Likes to box and coast. I knew he didn't have it in him at this stage in his career, to really go all out for the win. He no longer has the fire basically, that made him so successful in the first place.

    But yeah, that's obviously part of getting old too, they go hand in hand.

    Floyd has a style that ages much better.
     
  13. I think it was punk who hit the nail on the head:

    Manny was scared he'd get KO'd like he was against Marquez when he pressed the aggression and got cold cocked for his troubles.
